Before I start, let me acknowledge that my wife and I (who were attending an awards ceremony) were delighted to receive an upgrade to the "gold floor" where the attention and facilities were so good that we are tempted to book gold on future occasions even if we have to pay for it! We were pleasantly surprised at how peaceful... more

Beautiful location and building. Could do with a little more updating of the rooms themselves. But a GREAT experience nevertheles. more

I was there with my brother for one night and requested a Parliment view, which we got. We were on the 3rd floor and all though we were facing more the city still had an alright view of... more

My husband and I stayed at the Chateau Laurier for three evenings. We stayed in the upgraded suite section called the "Gold" section, which entitled guests on select floors to a private lounge area. The lounge was fantastic - they served breakfast from 7-10 AM and pre-dinner h'ordeurves from 5 - 7pm. Buffet style, it was included in our room... more
